Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at Ahmed bin Ali Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - It looks surprising Costa Rica does not make any changes. Yeltsin Tejeda has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' - Japan seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 15' - Japan is showing some good football. However, Japan are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 20' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Costa Rica that had 7 games and scored 5 goals.
  • 25' - Costa Rica looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Keysher Fuller scoring 1 goals.
  • 30' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Costa Rica winning 100% of all matches.
  • 35' - It’s high time Luis Suarez made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 40' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Japan needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 41' - Costa Rica player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 42' - Costa Rica player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 44' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Miki Yamane.
  • 46' - Japan manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Takuma Asano is hanging Ayase Ueda on the field on 46 minute.
  • 51' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Youstin Salas suffering a number of foals already.
  • 56' - Costa Rica started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 56.
  • 61' - The referee calls foul for Celso Borges. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 62' - Celso Borges was booked on 62.
  • 62' - Time for substitution for Japan. Miki Yamane is replaced by Kaoru Mitoma.
  • 65' - Costa Rica manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Brandon Aguilera is hanging Gerson Torres on the field on 65 minute.
  • 67' - The Japan manager makes a substitution. Ritsu Doan departs to be replaced by Junya Ito.
  • 70' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Francisco Calvo.
  • 71' - It’s a booking for Costa Rica player. Francisco Calvo gets a Yellow card.
  • 76' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 81' - Keysher Fuller puts Costa Rica on the lead.
  • 82' - Takumi Minamino is replacing Yuki Soma for the Japan side.
  • 84' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Ko Itakura on 84.
  • 89' - It is a substitution in Costa Rica team. Celso Borges is replaced by Youstin Salas on 89 minute.
  • 90' - Japan receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 90.
  • 90' - Another substitution for Costa Rica to replace Joel Campbell by Daniel Chacon on 90 minute.
